Mathematics
1 answer:
zlopas [31]3 years ago

Answer:

8 m, 17 m and 22 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The first side is x

The second is 1 more than twice the first = 2x + 1

The third is 2 less than 3 times the first = 3x - 2

Sum the 3 sides and equate to 47

x + 2x + 1 + 3x - 2 = 47, that is

6x - 1 = 47 ( add 1 to both sides )

6x = 48 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 8

Thus

side 1 = 8 m

side 2 = 2x + 1 = 2(8) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17 m

side 3 = 3x - 2 = 3(8) - 2 = 24 - 2 = 22 m

Last year, 31 2 acres of strawberry fields produced approximately 14,700 pounds of strawberries. This year the number of acres p
USPshnik [31]

So in 5 acres of land produces 21,000 pounds of strawberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Last year, 3\frac{1}{2} acres i.e 3.5 acres produced 14,700 pounds of strawberries. So we need to determine how many strawberries were produced per acre.

To do this we divide the total number of strawberries produced by the number of acres it was produced in.

The number of strawberries produced per acre= \frac{14,700}{3.5} = 4,200 pounds.

Step 2:

To determine the number of strawberries in 5 acres of land, we multiply the number of strawberries per acre by the number of acres.

The number of strawberries produced in 5 acres= 5(4,200) = 21,000 pounds.

So in 5 acres of land produces 21,000 pounds of strawberries.
